Life Skills Specialist

well, yesterday all the psych majors had a meeting. in this meeting we discussed all the kinds of jobs we could have with our psych degree. the one that popped out at me was Life Skills Specialist. my initial thought wat that it was someone who helps people with life problems and (possible) solutions. then i found it that is not wat it is at all. but if i want to i could open up my own practice, where that is exactly wat i do tho.

over the past few months i have really been active on this site. at first it was a way for me to keep in contact with someone, now i have made friends and give out advice. people have always told me i should be a counselor, because i listen well, i dont judge, i dont force religion or my beliefs on any, and i tend to give good sound advice.

some people ask me how is it that i can do this, when my life is (or was) the wat it is (was). or how can i care so much for people (even those i barely know or meet online). all i can say is it how’  i’ve always been. i use to cry when my syblings would get beat. i’ve always looked out for other people and their happiness. i kno it seems far fetched or to good to be tru, and some of you are probably thinking wats the catch. well, if you ask anyone who knows me or has met me online. they’ll tell you i truly do care and do all that i can for others. they’ll also tell you my main concern is you and your happiness. LOL… i laugh because thats like my catch phrase "all i care about is you and your happiness"; i say it so much. but its tru, i want people to be happy and i am willing to do watever i can.

so maybe that is wat i should do with the rest of my life. i dunno. because even though i dont push or force religion or my beliefs on you, at the base of all my advice is religon and my beliefs. like i tell people, even if Christianity is wrong or false, its principals and way of life can assist in life and with happiness. i dont like or do medication. my only prescription is prayer and all prayer prayer truly is is talking ou loud your thoughts, feelings, and emotions. you dont have to "talk to God" if you choose not to, thats fine, because its not until you acknowledge that your talkig to him and ask for his help that he steps in anyway. but i do believe talking things out loud helps.

anyway, i think that since my concern is people and their happiness that my practice would be successful. see, becaue all these other "shrinks" are worrying about that pay check and putting you on medicine, so they can help the "big corporations" push that mess on us. we were talking about medication(s) in my psych class. to be honest, most of the stuff they prescribe is created to get you hooked and make you dependant on it, so you cant live or function without it just like crack. so "shrinks" are drug pushers, they want you hooked, so you need them and their drug to get through life. they tried to tell me i clincally depressed and that i needed medicine. i’d rather kill myself then take that crap. look at me now, without medicine. it is possible to get over and past stuff without medicine. you just have to want to. everything starts in the mind, so once you make up your mind about a thing you can do it. you just have to be willing to do watever it takes and stick with it no matter wat.

so maybe that is wat i’ll do with my life. sounds like a plan. but its not the only hting i wanna do. i wanna plan concerts, tours, weddings, and other events. i also want to get into music. i also want to help other people reach and achievr their dreams, i wanna be a philanthropist, because i am also good at encouraging other. i tend to do that just as often as i give out (kinda) good advice. i wanna own businesses and homes. i wanna help people get on their feet, open a type of shelter where i clothe, feed, train, and a plethora of other things to help peple. i also want my very own orphanage, because kids need love and most problems we have as adults  start from childhood. there is so much i wanna do, but it all revolves around helping others.

i was reading "Dream Giver" by Bruce Wlikinson (which is still a must read) earlier and it was talking about how to figure out wat dream was placed in you from birth. how to figure it out and stuff like that. it said if someone gave you a million dollars to follow your dream or do watever you want with it, (except the usual stuff, like pay bills, debt, buy stuff, etc.) wat would you do with it? it may not tell you your dream excatly, but it will give some sort of direction or clue as to wat it envolves. so based on that i guess watever my dream is it includes helping people. but i knew that back when i was 10, i need more info. than that. but i guess i’ll have to wait, be patient, and continue my search.

until next time…
